So let's say child1 has col "a" and col "b", both are turned into multi-value fields in the solr index. Normally in sql we can query for a specific value in col "a", and then see what the associated value in col "b" would be, but we can't do that if we stuff the col values in multi-value; we can no longer see which value from col "a" corresponds to which value in col "b". I'm probably explaining that poorly, but I just don't see how that would work.
